Hey all. I am preparing for my first all grain. I came up with my own recipe for an "wheat IPA". I am aiming for something with a fruity taste...hopefully mango with a touch of banana and orange. I have some mosiac pellet hops as well as some calypso whole hops to put in the mix. I am hoping the naked oats help give a great shaving cream head as well as a touch of nut flavor to go with the fruit.
I am planning on doing a big 64 oz. starter to control the banana esters to minimum, and soaking the orange peel in vodka before adding to the secondary carboy.
So far...my beers kinda suck. Not bad....but not great by any standards. So I am hoping for some sound advice/opinons with this recipe. The learning curve for homebrew is low and long...as it takes so darned long for final results.
Pardon any misspelled words...i am drinking the fruits of previous labors as we speak.
